Erik Hatcher updated SOLR-1478:
-------------------------------

    Attachment: SOLR-1478.patch

This patch adds a special sort field (like "score" is implemented) to enable 
sorting by docid.  

The character "#" was used simply to avoid any potential field name overlap, 
but this requires URL encoding it to %23, so maybe some other string should be 
used?  

Here's an example URL: 
http://localhost:8983/solr/select?q=*:*&sort=%23%20desc&fl=id

Seems like score and docid sorting should avoid using normal field name 
strings, so maybe _score_ and _docid_ or something.

I marked this for 1.4, because it's a trivial patch.  Discussion welcome.
